https://github.com/ClassicOldSong/Apollo

This is a much more active fork, called Apollo, which got headless mode, along with many, many more useful features, a long time ago. Artemis (moonlight) client also supports clipboard sync

Last time I looked into Apollo it had a bunch of controversy around it and it's owner. And it was extremely hostile to anyone seeking help in their discord support channel.

Made me swear off the project and the dev.

Wait till you read into any other software you use..

Apollo only works on a windows based server at this point. I like Apollo a lot, but I only have a Linux server available that I can put a headless install on (in an unprivileged lxc actually).

Another cool option is Games on Whales: https://games-on-whales.github.io/

Altough you probably have to run it in a privileged LXC.

They list unprivileged Docker as the main install method, do you have any references to LXC?

They have a guide for how to set things up in a Proxmox LXC: https://games-on-whales.github.io/wolf/stable/user/quickstart.html
